partition

Access the partition-level commands. Different commands are available depending on whether the current slot is the HSM administrative partition or a user partition.

For the Luna Network HSM, only Luna Shell commands can be used with a PED-initiated Remote PED connection. Client-side LunaCM commands such as partition init cannot be executed. This means that only administrative personnel, logging in via Luna Shell (lunash:>) can authenticate to the HSM using a PED-initiated Remote PED connection.

To perform actions requiring authentication on Network HSM partitions (that is, from the client side) any Remote PED connection must be launched by the HSM, and the data-center firewall rules must permit such outward initiation of contact.

Syntax

This version of the partition command set includes an init command for the application partition. These are the commands you see if the current-slot application partition was created using the -slot option.
